16:1 論到為聖徒捐錢,我從前怎樣吩咐加拉太的眾教會,你們也當怎樣行。
16:2 每逢七日的第一日,各人要照自己的進項抽出來留著,免得我來的時候現湊。
16:3 及至我來到了,你們寫信舉薦誰,我就打發他們,把你們的捐資送到耶路撒冷去。
16:4 若我也該去,他們可以和我同去。

Now about the
collection for the Lord’s people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do. 2 On the
first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in
keeping with your income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will
have to be made. 3 Then,
when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the men you approve and
send them with your gift to Jerusalem. 4 If it seems advisable for me to go also, they will
accompany me.

所以,我們沒有在第七日敬拜,並不是為反聖經的「守安息日」。因為教會聚集的日子是在「每逢七日的第一日」,在保羅將福音傳到哥林多以前,教會已經有「主日」集合禮拜的傳統了!
我們不要受到某些強調守舊約律法的教派影響,硬要在星期六禮拜。其實,主日崇拜更是合乎聖經所立的傳統的!
